Now we're trying neo/poly/hc 1% otic. i started this 8/10. the pain never really cleared up and the day before i went back to the dr and got script for ear drops it was qute severe. she said she saw fluid in both ears but not enough to warrant the pain i felt and if the drops don't correct i may have to see an ent specialist and may require tubes. what is this procedure?

Over night I would recommend soem tylenol or ibuprofen, whichever you prefer. You can also rotate them. Say take ibuprofen and then 4 hours later take tylenol, and then four more hours later take ibuprofen again and repeat.
I feel for you and hope you find some relief and answers soon.
